The short answer
Set math facts practice for your class: addition or subtraction within 20, number bonds to 10, 20 or 100, the times tables or division facts. Give it a due date, keep it open until then, and see the facts the class missed. No pupil accounts and no names.
How to set it up
- Sign in with Google and create a class.
- Add Math Facts Practice, choose the facts (for example Number bonds to 20) and the mode: untimed, 6 seconds a question, or a 2-minute sprint.
- Optionally give it a due date and tick Open until the due date, so pupils can do it at home.
- Print the join cards, or show the class code and give each pupil their seat and PIN.
- When the sets come in, open the missed facts and download the CSV.
What you see
- The most-missed facts, with how many of the seats that were asked each one missed it; for times tables and division, a grid of the 2 to 12 tables as well.
- The CSV with a
missed_factscell per send (“8+7 13−6”). - The class over time, week by week, from each seat’s second set on.
- Due dates, and the task list pupils see with their seat’s “Sent ✓”.
A 10-minute lesson plan
- Minutes 0–2. Open the class for joining. Pupils scan their card, choose the task and type their PIN.
- Minutes 2–5. A first set, sent like any other: each pupil presses Send to my teacher. It is the warm-up, so it never counts in any trend.
- Minutes 5–8. The real set, in the mode you chose, sent the same way. Then open the grid of missed facts and pick the three facts most of the class missed.
- Minutes 8–10. Teach one way to work out each of the three. Pupils press Practise these again on their own result: a short untimed set of just the facts they missed, which is never sent.
- After the lesson. Set the same task again with a due date of Friday, open until then, so it can be done at home.
A weekly routine
Pick one kind of fact for a few weeks, for example bonds to 20, and set it once a week with a due date. Each set is new but built the same way, so the weeks can be compared; bonds to 10 asks each of its 11 facts twice, and bonds to 20 each of its 21 facts once.
What pupils see
One fact at a time with a number pad, their own result at the end, the facts to practise again and a button to practise just those. Nothing is ranked, and nobody sees anyone else’s result.

Planned price: $4.99 a month billed yearly ($59.88), or $9.99 month to month. Class Pro is a free beta for now: billing would start only after at least 30 days’ notice in your classes page, and only if you choose to pay then. Without it you can still set the same facts test again and again: every sitting is a new set.
Questions teachers ask
Which facts can I set?
Addition and subtraction within 20, number bonds to 10, 20 and 100, the times tables from 2 to 12, and division facts, one kind per task.
Can I set the same practice again next week?
Yes, as often as you like: every sitting is a new set with the same mix of easier and harder facts. Class Pro adds suggested repeats of the facts your class missed most, a week and three weeks later.
What happens after the due date?
The task stays on the pupils’ list with its date, but a send is refused until you set a later day, which you can do from the task.
Does it say a pupil is behind?
No. It shows no age, level or norm, only how this class’s answers changed on practice sets of the same design.
